THE HACK MEN

Will make q great mistake II they
raise any question Of their right to oc-
supy the streets. They have no such
right. They have hitherto been toler-
ated, butthe stencil that arises from
their stand is nuisance greater than
people can bear. Hacks are q public
necessity, and people are willing TO
make some provision for them But
they cannot bear the horrible stencil
that comes, for instance, from Monroe
street. The smell OF ammonia Is
enough, under some atmospheric con-
ditions, TO make one sick who is sub
iected to it ioi ten or fifteen minutes.
How the people who eat in the res
taurants near by can stand 1t is a mys-
terry. Besides this, there are the flies
that are attracted, which carry the
diseases and faint of manure to every
thing in the form OF food on which
they slight. WHAT tho city ought to
do is to mako a hack stand on the
bluff, pave 1t with stone laid in &C.
ment, 80 that water would not drain
through, aud grade it down al
q proper angle to a center
along which g stone pipe should
be laid to recsive and carry of int,
the general sewer everything washe'
into it. And, to make sure OF absC
late cleanliness, this stand should b
washed with water three times esc
day. The hacks should be called b
their position on the stand, and

placed la kiosk to be erected o
